The fact that they sell and write about wood mostly over 150 years old does not din their enthusiasm and interest for wood, or their ability to convey modern ideas simply. The Sciffers are authors, collectors, antique dealers and appraisers. They also have a cabinet shop doing fine restorations on antique furniture. With their background they bring you some of the tricks of identifying woods and show you how the wood can tell you where and when a piece of furniture was made. Besides this information, this book includes information the Schiffers were able to acquire from experts in the fields of forestry, hardwood sales, museum sciences, cabinet work and mill work as well as their personal knowledge of other furniture dealers and collectors. The color section in this book shows not only the woods most requently used for cabinet making and building, but also woods oxidized and aged. The pictures of secondary woods in oxidized condition and finished ole primary wood surfaces has never been presented before. Twenty-six actual samples of wood are here for your touch and inspection. The authors have pictured wood that you have the greatest chance of seeing and handling. Included are fantastic pictures of the lumber industry." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.…
